...as it happened: live blog, updates, highlights, lineups, comments, etc.
Chelsea look to make it four wins in a row, three in the league, and five games unbeaten overall in all competitions. We've kept back-to-back-to-back clean sheets in what seems like forever, so let's keep stacking those as well alongside the wins.
Enzo Maresca makes all the expected changes from midweek, rotating the starting lineup back to the first-choice players. His starting XI is the same as the people's choice.
Here we go!

Sánchez | Cucurella, Colwill, Fofana, Gusto | Enzo (c), Caicedo | Sancho, Palmer, Madueke | Jackson
